Fresh fish and chips in Brownbread Street
Takeaway run or book a van?
Deep-frying for lots of people at home is risky: hot oil and a busy party are a bad combination. Leave the frying to a van built for it.

About the food
Sausage and chips
For anyone who does not fancy fish, there’s sausage and chips, and children love it.
Haddock and chips
Haddock is a little sweeter than cod, with a finer, firmer flake. It is the traditional favourite in Scotland and much of the north.
